Vince Cable, the business secretary, wants to hear from you. Vince Cable has launched a call for evidence from entrepreneurs for the government’s forthcoming white paper on trade.

The white paper will examine how Britain’s trade and investment policy should evolve, especially in light of changing domestic, EU and global developments.

“Trade and investment is a key part of the growth strategy for the UK – we must make sure that we have the right plans in place,” comments Vince Cable.

“For that very reason, it’s essential that the white paper is informed not just by Whitehall, but by charities, NGOs, businesses, think tanks, academics and by those with an interest in trade. I would strongly encourage interested parties to contribute to our call for evidence.”

Vince Cable wants to hear your views on UK trade and investment potential and performance: What should the government’s role be on trade issues? What is the impact of the global economic crisis? What do you want the strategy to reflect for the next five years?

The call for evidence will run from November 5 and December 3. You can find more information on the white paper and how you can contribute here.
